The 22nd International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications (RTA'11) is organized as part of the Federated Conference on Rewriting, Deduction, and Programming (RDP'11) together with the International Conference on Typed Lambda Calculi and Applications (TLCA 2011) and several related events.
Previous RTA meetings were held in Dijon (1985), Bordeaux (1987), Chapel Hill (1989), Como (1991), Montreal (1993), Kaiserslautern (1995), Rutgers (1996), Sitges (1997), Tsukuba (1998), Trento (1999), Norwich (2000), Utrecht (2001), Copenhagen (2002), Valencia (2003), Aachen (2004), Nara (2005), Seattle (2006), Paris (2007), Hagenberg/Linz (2008), Brasilia (2009) and Edinburgh (2010).
RTA is the major forum for the presentation of research on all aspects of rewriting. Typical areas of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Applications: case studies; analysis of cryptographic protocols; rule-based (functional and logic) programming; symbolic and algebraic computation; theorem proving; system synthesis and verification; proof checking; reasoning about programming languages and logics; program transformation; XML queries and transformations;
- Foundations: matching and unification; narrowing; completion techniques; strategies; rewriting calculi, constraint solving; tree automata; termination; complexity; combination;
- Frameworks: string, term, and graph rewriting; lambda-calculus and higher-order rewriting; constrained rewriting/deduction; categorical and infinitary rewriting; integration of decision procedures; net rewriting; binding techniques;
- Implementation: implementation techniques; parallel execution; rewrite tools; termination checking; abstract machines; explicit substitutions;
- Semantics: equational logic; rewriting logic; rewriting models of programs.

PUBLICATION:
RTA proceedings will be published by LIPIcs (Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics). LIPIcs is open access, meaning that publications will be available online and free of charge, and authors keep the copyright for their papers. LIPIcs publications are indexed in DBLP. STACS, FSTTCS and ICLP proceedings also appear in LIPIcs. See
http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics for more information about LIPIcs.
Printed proceedings of RTA will be provided to the participants at the conference.
SUBMISSIONS:
Submissions must be original and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Submissions must fall into one of the following categories (to be indicated in the title page):
- Regular research Papers: describing new results; they will be judged on correctness and significance.
- Experience papers: describing the experience of applying rewriting techniques in other areas; they will be judged on relevance and comparison with other approaches.
- Problem sets that provide realistic and interesting challenges in the field of rewriting.
- System descriptions; they should contain a link to a working system and will be judged on usefulness and design.
Additional material, for instance proof details, may be given in an appendix which is not subject to the page limit.
However, submissions must be self-contained within the respective page limit; reading the appendix should not be necessary to assess the merits of a submission.
Submissions are accepted in PDF format.
Abstracts and papers must be submitted electronically through the EasyChair system at:
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rta2011
INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTHORS:
Submitted works are limited to 15 pages, including references. An appendix may or may not be part of the submission, which will not be included in the proceedings. Submissions must use the LaTeX class lipics.cls, and should take the information on the LaTeX formatting into acount. LaTeX files and formatting information is available for download: lipics-sample-article, cc-by-nc-nd, cc-by-nd, lipics-logo-bw, rta-logo, Lipics manual.
Questions concerning submissions may be addressed to the PC chair, Manfred Schmidt-Schauss.
